Abstract
ABSTRACT Siblings came to me as a contradictory experience: a Eureka-like ecstatic revelation subdued by a numb sense of tired relief. I had struggled for years with what was intended as a book on male hysteria. Although in Studies in Hysteria (1895) Freud published only cases of female hysteria, it was his insistence on the existence of hysteria in men that was the underlying foundation–stone of psychoanalysis. Without it, hysteria could not have been a universal; no universal, no unconscious, no psychoanalysis. But likewise it was in discarding his trauma theory of the genesis of hysteria in favor of the concept of desire that made Freud overjoyed to give up his “neurotica” and confirm the inauguration of a new knowledge – psychoanalysis.
期刊介绍：
The Psychoanalytic Study of the Child is recognized as a preeminent source of contemporary psychoanalytic thought. Published annually, it focuses on presenting carefully selected and edited representative articles featuring ongoing analytic research as well as clinical and theoretical contributions for use in the treatment of adults and children. Initiated in 1945, under the early leadership of Anna Freud, Kurt and Ruth Eissler, Marianne and Ernst Kris, this series of volumes soon established itself as a leading reference source of study. To look at its contributors is to be confronted with the names of a stellar list of creative, scholarly pioneers who willed a rich heritage of information about the development and disorders of children and their influence on the treatment of adults as well as children. An innovative section, The Child Analyst at Work, periodically provides a forum for dialogue and discussion of clinical process from multiple viewpoints.
